Pricing side-by-side

NordVPN

NordVPN is monthly, 1-year, or 2-year plans. The 2-year plan has the biggest discount but is billed upfront — enter the upfront amount and set the cycle to Yearly so SubRemind divides it correctly.

Proton VPN

Proton VPN pricing varies by plan, region, and any active promo. SubRemind doesn't hard-code merchant prices — you enter the amount actually billed to your card so the dashboard total stays honest. Yearly plans should use the Yearly cycle so SubRemind divides the cost across 12 months in the projection chart.

FAQ

Can I track NordVPN and Proton VPN at the same time in SubRemind?

Yes. There's no limit on subscriptions or overlap between categories. Add NordVPN and Proton VPN as two separate entries; both will appear in your monthly total, your projection chart, and the upcoming-30-days list.

What if NordVPN bills me in a different currency than Proton VPN?

That's fine. SubRemind converts each subscription into your chosen base currency using live exchange rates, so a NordVPN sub in one currency and a Proton VPN sub in another will both appear correctly in your aggregate stats.

Will SubRemind tell me whether to keep NordVPN or Proton VPN?

No — SubRemind shows you the cost picture but never recommends cancellations. After running both for a month or two, look at the category donut and the upcoming-30-days view to decide which one earns its monthly cost.

Are free trials for NordVPN and Proton VPN tracked separately?

Yes. Each subscription has its own trial state. You can have NordVPN on a free trial while Proton VPN is on a paid plan; only the paid one will count toward this month's total.
